New Gas Gasser, Greetings from South Carolina

[Fabry]

I just want to say hallo to all you Gas Gas Riders!
I?m new here, just purchased my New (to me) 2003 Gas Gas EC250 for a 2 stroke alternative to my other ride, a 2012 Husky TE310, I grew up in North west Italy where Gas Gas bikes are very well known but it was really hard for me to find a used one close to Charleston South Carolina where I live and ride.
I finally found one decent Full Ohlins Dealers Edition, I only did a 30 min test ride and it?s love at first ride I think this bike is even competitive with newer KTM XC with linkage at least for my riding skill .

Now the bike is all disassembled in my Garage and the Rebuild process have started.

Welcome, I am in N. Atlanta and many of my riding group is in the Upstate SC area and Charlotte NC. We get together at Durhamtown Plantation [GA] several times a year as well as the Hatfield-McCoy trails system to your north in W.Va.
